I will marry with Rachel and we would like to have kids =)  Aria Joined: 10 Feb 2003 Total Posts: 1035 Send PM   [No Subject] Posted: 30 Jun 2003 12:37 AM Yup yup NPCs are definitely pieces-in-work.

Otherwise this would be great...not only kids, but say a dozen or so random people walking around big cities like Midor, and 6-8 walking around Port Royale, just for flavor... ~Fenarisk  Fenarisk Joined: 14 Apr 2003 Total Posts: 823 Send PM   [No Subject] Posted: 30 Jun 2003 12:37 AM Hehe...good idea...is it hard to get scripts of people running around?

That's one of the major things I've been working on/ talking about, the OnPerceives, which would hopefully 'activates' the NPCs only when it matters (when PCs are close) and not anywhere else. Effectively this would take out all the HB matters... [i:afef04ce4d]maybe[/i:afef04ce4d]. Aria So talented, so troubled.
